KÉRASTASE Chroma Respect Shampoo Riche — Color-Treated Shampoo for Medium to Thick Hair, Sulfate- & Silicone-Free, 8.5 fl oz

KÉRASTASE Chroma Absolu Chroma Respect Shampoo Riche is a sulfate- and silicone-free cleansing treatment that gently cleanses, nourishes and helps protect medium to thick color-treated hair while improving shine and reducing frizz.

This shampoo is formulated specifically for sensitized or damaged color-treated hair. It uses lactic acid (an AHA) and Centella Asiatica to reinforce weakened fibers, reduce porosity, and lock in color vibrancy without adding weight. The creamy, rich texture gives a comforting, slip-rich wash that leaves strands smooth and more manageable when paired with the rest of the Chroma Absolu regimen.

How does this shampoo protect hair color during washing?

The formula avoids harsh sulfates and silicones that can strip pigments, instead relying on gentle surfactants and active ingredients that seal the hair surface. Lactic acid helps smooth the cuticle so color molecules remain better retained and reflect light for enhanced shine.

• Sulfate- and silicone-free cleansing system to reduce pigment loss
• Lactic acid smooths cuticles and lowers porosity to lock in color
• Creamy texture limits friction during washing to protect fragile strands

Will it help damaged or sensitized hair feel stronger?

Yes—Centella Asiatica and targeted conditioning agents support fiber reinforcement and hydration. Regular use with Chroma Absolu treatments helps reduce breakage and improves elasticity so hair looks healthier and less fragile.

• Centella Asiatica helps rebuild weakened fiber structure
• Hydrating agents restore moisture to mid-lengths and ends
• Recommended follow-up with Chroma Filler mask for deeper reconstruction

Is this shampoo suitable for medium to thick hair without weighing it down?

Formulated to address the needs of medium to thick textures, the rich formula provides substantial nourishment without leaving buildup. It balances moisturizing benefits with a clean finish so hair retains movement and volume after rinsing.

• Rich, emollient texture for deeper hydration on thicker strands
• Rinses cleanly to prevent limpness or residue
• Maintains natural movement while reducing frizz

How should I use Chroma Respect Shampoo Riche for best results?

Apply to thoroughly wet hair, massage to create a gentle lather, and rinse. Shampoo a second time focusing on lengths and ends, then follow with a Chroma Absolu mask and Chroma Gloss to rebuild and seal color for optimal longevity.

• First wash: lift surface impurities and oils
• Second wash: concentrate on lengths and ends for targeted care
• Finish with Chroma Filler mask and Chroma Gloss for reconstruction and shine

Who is this for: KÉRASTASE Chroma Absolu Chroma Respect Shampoo Riche is designed for anyone with sensitized, damaged, or color-treated medium to thick hair seeking a gentle yet nourishing cleanse that helps preserve color, reduce frizz, and restore manageability. It works best as part of the Chroma Absolu routine when you want professional-level color care and fiber repair at home.
